Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1272

"Have those kids been caught?" Zuko asked.

Jill hesitated briefly, then smiled fawningly and nodded. "Yes, they've all been caught, not one missing. They're outside."

"Let them come in," Zuko said.

"Okay." Jill gestured outside, and the kids were brought in.

When Desiree saw them, her eyes glinted viciously. She was about to raise her hand to hit them but noticed Zuko nearby. She held back her impulse and retracted her hand.

Zuko noticed her subtle move.

He then looked at the kids. They appeared around 12 or 13 years old but seemed younger, closer to 8 or 9 years old, due to malnutrition. Their sharp and fierce gazes stunned Zuko.

Children who grew up in a warm and loving environment would never have such a look.

Zuko approached them slowly. The kids eyed him cautiously and stepped back.

"Do you know what you did wrong?" Zuko's voice was low and husky.

The kids remained silent.

"Regardless of the circumstances, splashing dirty water on others is wrong. You're still kids. Did someone ask you to do this?"

"Yes, Zuko!" Desiree exclaimed, "There must be someone behind this. We need to find out who!"

Jill was at a loss. "Mr. Hamerton, well..."

Zuko chuckled. "Do what Ms. Harper says and find out who's behind this."
